Facebook News Feed Renamed to Live Feed
You'll notice something new, yet subtle, on Facebook today. Look at
the top of your home page - there are now two ways to view your
friends' activities: News Feed, and Live Feed.
acquisition, and a nice first step for Facebook towards implementing
their technology. It looks as if Facebook chose to rename News Feed as Live Feed, and
move all 'significant' events to the News Feed (those items that have
been commented on or 'liked' the most - supposedly relevant to you). A
welcome change, as those with a ton of friends can't often watch their
news feed all day long for things to happen. This is a great way to
separate lame updates (er, those without a lot of feedback) from those
that are more relevant to your circle of friends.
Sweet.
Of course there will always be hate for change on Facebook. But keep in mind, Facebook lovers, that if your favorite social media platform doesn't evolve, it will die. Luckily for you, this is a minor change, and it's easy enough to just click on 'live feed' to get back to what you're used to viewing.
